Day started out great at the Airliner for the Gopher Vs Hawks game.

We started the day with several drinks and a delicious breakfast pizza 🍕

The atmosphere was electric. The staff especially the bar tenders were amazing experienced pros!!

Great wonderful time at the Airliner…the game didn’t go as well for Minnesota 😐

The burgers here are exactly what a bar burger should be. A lot of places try too hard to make a burger. But at airliner you get exactly the greasy tasty burger you’re looking for. Service can be a little slow but I haven't ever been in too big of a rush that it was an issue. Atmosphere wise its a college bar. No more no less. One of my favorite spots in Iowa City

Great atmosphere during a football weekend. It is a college bar... Enjoyed the food and drinks. It was very busy but our server was fantastic with refilling our drinks and getting our food fast.
